WWE Raw results: Sheamus misses out on Grand Slam as he fails to capture Intercontinental Championship
Sheamus who has been with WWE since 2006, once again failed to capture the one title that has eluded him throughout his nearly two-decade career - the Intercontinental Championship. Only around two dozen superstars have had the honour of being WWE Grand Slam Champions.
WWE superstar Sheamus on Monday missed out on a rare opportunity despite picking up a win via disqualification on the latest episode of Monday Night RAW. Sheamus challenged Bron Breakker for the Intercontinental Championship on RAW, but the match ended in a disqualification after the Celtic Warrior was ambushed by Ludwig Kaiser.

Sheamus, who is also a King of the Ring, Money in the Bank, and Royal Rumble winner, is currently in the league of John Cena, who is set to retire from WWE in 2025. Cena, who is a 16-time world champion, is not a WWE Grand Slam Champion as he too has never won the WWE Intercontinental Championship.
